DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0033] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, example embodiments can be implemented in a variety of forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided to make the present invention more comprehensive and complete and to fully convey the concepts of example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals in the figures represent the same or similar structures, and thus their repeated description will be omitted.
[0034] The words expressing positions and directions described in the present invention are all explained with reference to the accompanying drawings as examples, but they can be changed as needed, and all such changes are included in the protection scope of the present invention.
[0035] like Figure 4-16As shown, the present invention provides a swing assembly device 10 of a folding screen hinge assembly, which includes an assembly fixture 11 for carrying a hinge body 101 and a swing assembly mechanism 12 for assembling a swing arm 102 on the hinge body 101, wherein the swing assembly mechanism 12 includes a first moving module 121, a rotating unit 122 installed on the first moving module 121, and a clamping arm unit 123 installed on the rotating unit 122 and used to clamp or release the swing arm 102 assembled with a swing arm movable plate 103, wherein the first moving module 121 is used to drive the rotating unit 122 to reciprocate in the X / Y / Z axis direction, and the rotating unit 122 drives the clamping arm unit 123 to rotate a preset angle, and the first moving module 121 drives the clamping arm unit 123 to rotate a preset angle. After the element 123 moves down to the arc groove end of the swing arm 102 and cooperates with the end of the arc convex strip of the hinge body 101, the clamping arm unit 123 releases the swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103, and the first movable module 121 drives the clamping arm unit 123 to move upward as a whole, and the clamping arm unit 123 can interfere upward with the end of the swing arm 102 away from the hinge body 101 during the upward movement, forcing the arc groove at the other end of the swing arm 102 to slide along the arc convex strip of the hinge body 101. When the clamping arm unit 123 is separated from the end of the swing arm 102 away from the hinge body 101, the swing arm 102 flips downward under the action of its own gravity, so that the arc groove of the swing arm 102 slides into place with the arc convex strip of the hinge body 101.
[0036] The working principle of the swing assembly device 10 of the present embodiment is as follows: first, the unassembled hinge body 101 is placed on the assembly fixture 11, and then the assembled swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103 are transported to the swing assembly mechanism 12, and the swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103 are clamped by the clamping arm unit 123 of the swing assembly mechanism 12, and then the position of the clamping arm unit 123 in the X / Y / Z axis direction is adjusted by the first moving module 121 to make the positions of the swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103 at the preset position, and then the rotating unit 122 drives the clamping arm unit 123 to move the swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103 to the preset position. 23 is rotated as a whole to a preset angle until the arc-shaped groove end of the swing arm 102 away from the swing arm movable plate 103 is located directly above the end of the arc-shaped convex strip of the hinge body 101. This process can be assisted in positioning by a visual inspection system. Then, driven by the first movable module 121, the clamping arm unit 123 moves downward to make the arc-shaped groove end of the swing arm 102 cooperate with the end of the arc-shaped convex strip of the hinge body 101. Then the clamping arm unit 123 releases the swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103, and the first movable module 121 drives the clamping arm unit 123 to move upward as a whole. Since in the previous process, the arc groove end of the swing arm 102 and the arc convex end of the swing arm movable plate 103 have been preliminarily matched, the two have formed a preliminary positioning effect. During the upward movement of the clamping arm unit 123, the clamping arm unit 123 has released the swing arm 102 but the swing arm 102 has not yet completely separated from the clamping arm unit 123. At this time, the clamping arm unit 123 can interfere upward with the end of the swing arm 102 away from the hinge body 101, forcing the arc groove at the other end of the swing arm 102 to slide along the arc convex strip of the hinge body 101. When the clamping arm unit 123 moves up to a certain height, the clamping arm unit 123 is separated from the end of the swing arm 102 away from the hinge body 101. At this time, the swing arm 102 has been turned outward to a certain extent, and the swing arm 102 continues to flip downward under the action of its own gravity until the swing arm 102 and the hinge body 101 are assembled in place.
[0037] In the above-mentioned assembly process, the swing arm 102 is automatically assembled on the hinge body 101 through the mutual cooperation and coordination of the clamping arm unit 123, the rotating unit 122, and the first movable module 121. At the same time, with the help of the clamping arm unit 123, a force can be provided during the upward movement to drive the end of the swing arm 102 away from the hinge body 101 to flip upward and outward, forcing the arc groove at the other end of the swing arm 102 to slide along the arc convex strip of the hinge body 101. When the swing arm 102 is separated from the clamping arm unit 123, the swing arm 102 can flip downward under the action of its own gravity to be assembled into place with the hinge body 101. There is no need to drive the swing arm 102 to rotate and assemble into place throughout the whole process, which greatly simplifies the assembly steps, changes the traditional manual operation, improves assembly efficiency, reduces labor costs, meets the production requirements of existing processes, greatly improves economic benefits, reduces the influence of human factors on quality during the production process, thereby reducing errors in the processing process and improving the quality of products.
[0038] As a preferred embodiment, the swing assembly device 10 further includes an auxiliary pushing mechanism for abutting against the back side of the swing arm 102 after the arc-shaped groove end of the swing arm 102 is aligned and matched with the end of the arc-shaped convex strip.
[0039] As a preferred embodiment, the auxiliary pushing mechanism includes an auxiliary base 13 slidably connected to the assembly jig 11, a push plate 14 provided on the auxiliary base 13, and a push driving member 15 driving the auxiliary base 13 to move back and forth, the push driving member 15 drives the push plate 14 to move toward the swing arm 102 and abut against the back of the swing arm 102, and a U-shaped groove is provided at the end of the push plate 14. The push driving member 15 is used to make the push plate 14 approach or move away from the swing arm 102, so as to accurately control the moving distance of the push plate 14, and the U-shaped groove on the push plate 14 is used to limit the deviation of the swing arm 102 during the flipping process, so that the process of assembling the swing arm 102 on the hinge body 101 is more stable.
[0040] As a preferred embodiment, the auxiliary pushing mechanism is provided with two, and the two auxiliary pushing mechanisms are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the assembly jig 11. When the left swing arm 102 and the right swing arm 102 are assembled on the hinge body 101 at the same time, the two auxiliary pushing mechanisms can assist the left swing arm 102 and the right swing arm 102, which is conducive to improving assembly efficiency.
[0041] In this embodiment, during the assembly of the swing arm 102 of the swing mechanism, since the end of the swing arm 102 away from the swing arm movable plate 103 first cooperates with the end of the arc-shaped protrusion of the hinge body 101, in order to avoid the swing arm 102 from being deflected during the eversion process, the push plate 14 assists the swing arm 102 in transitioning the eversion process. The principle is as follows: when the arc groove end of the swing arm 102 is matched with the end of the arc convex strip of the hinge body 101, the driving member 15 drives the push plate 14 to move toward the swing arm 102, so that the push plate 14 abuts against the back of the swing arm 102 to support the swing arm 102. During the process of the swing arm 102 turning outward, the push plate 14 slides with the back of the swing arm 102 to assist the swing arm 102 to slide along the arc convex strip of the hinge body 101. When the upper end of the swing arm 102 is completely separated from the clamping arm unit 123, the push plate 14 is separated from the swing arm 102 to avoid interfering with the process of the swing arm 102 turning over under its own gravity. By setting a U-shaped groove at the end of the push plate 14, it is convenient for the push plate 14 to stably support the swing arm 102.
[0042] As a preferred embodiment, the clamping arm unit 123 includes a clamping arm seat 1231 connected to the rotating unit 122, a first clamping arm 1232 fixedly arranged on the clamping arm seat 1231, and a clamping driving member 1234 arranged on the clamping arm seat 1231, and the output end of the clamping driving member 1234 is provided with a second clamping arm 1233, and the second clamping arm 1233 is located above the first clamping arm 1232. The clamping driving member 1234 is used to drive the second clamping arm 1233 to approach or move away from the first clamping arm 1232 so as to clamp or release the swing arm 102 by the cooperation between the first clamping arm 1232 and the second clamping arm 1233. When the first clamping arm 1232 moves upward away from the assembly jig 11, it can provide a force that causes the upper end of the swing arm 102 to flip upward and outward.
[0043] The working principle of the clamping arm unit 123 of this embodiment is as follows: after the end of the swing arm arc groove 1021 of the swing arm 102 is matched with the end of the hinge arc convex strip 1011 of the hinge body 101, Fig.12As shown, the clamping driving member 1234 then drives the second clamping arm 1233 upward away from the first clamping arm 1232, and the first moving module 121 drives the second clamping arm 1233 and the first clamping arm 1232 to move upward synchronously. During this process, the bottom surface of the swing arm 102 abuts against the first clamping arm 1232. During the upward movement of the first clamping arm 1232, the first clamping arm 1232 and the bottom surface of the swing arm 102 slide, forcing the upper end of the swing arm 102 to turn outward. The second clamp arm 1233 has been separated from the first clamp arm 1232, and a space is formed between the two for the upper end of the swing arm 102 to be turned outward, so as to prevent the second clamp arm 1233 from interfering with the process of the upper end of the swing arm 102 being turned outward. At the same time, under the limitation of the arc convex strip of the hinge body 101 and the push plate 14, the lower end of the swing arm 102 is turned inward, so that the swing arm arc groove 1021 at the lower end of the swing arm 102 is further matched with the hinge arc convex strip 1011 of the hinge body 101. When the first clamp arm 1232 rises to a certain height, the first clamp arm 1232 is separated from the upper end of the swing arm 102. At this time, the swing arm 102 has been turned outward to a certain extent, and the swing arm 102 continues to turn downward under the action of its own gravity until the swing arm 102 is assembled in place.
[0044] In this embodiment, the workpiece is clamped by the first clamp arm 1232 and the second clamp arm 1233, and the first clamp arm 1232 is fixed relative to the second clamp arm 1233. When the second clamp arm 1233 moves away from the first clamp arm 1232, and the clamp arm unit 123 moves upward as a whole, the first clamp arm 1232 can provide a force to cause the upper end of the swing arm 102 to flip upward and outward, thereby realizing automatic upward and outward flipping of the swing arm 102 without the aid of an additional driving component to achieve the flipping, and has the advantages of simple structure and low cost.
[0045] As a preferred embodiment, the rotating unit 122 includes a rotating base 1220 connected to the first moving module 121 and a rotating driving member 1221 connected to the rotating base 1220 , and an output end of the rotating driving member 1221 is connected to the clamping arm seat 1231 .
[0046] In this embodiment, the first movable module 121 drives the rotating unit 122 and the clamping arm unit 123 to move in the X / Y / Z axis direction, and the rotating driving member 1221 drives the clamping arm unit 123 to rotate as a whole, so that the clamping arm unit 123 can rotate as a whole to a preset angle, which is convenient for adjusting the angle and orientation of the clamping arm unit 123 to clamp the swing arm 102 for subsequent assembly.
[0047] As a preferred embodiment, the assembly jig 11 includes a bearing plate 110 for bearing and positioning the hinge body 101, and the bearing plate 110 is provided with a positioning structure 111 for matching with the hole position of the hinge body 101. The positioning structure 111 of this embodiment is preferably a column, and the column of the bearing plate 110 is plugged into the hole position of the hinge body 101 to achieve accurate positioning of the hinge body 101, thereby avoiding position offset in the subsequent assembly process and affecting the assembly accuracy.
[0048] As a preferred embodiment, it also includes a turntable 16 for installing the assembly jig 11, a loading mechanism 20 for transporting the hinge body 101 to be assembled to the assembly jig 11, a transport mechanism 30 for transporting the swing arm 102 with the swing arm movable plate 103 assembled to the clamping arm unit 123, and an unloading mechanism 40 for moving the hinge body 101 with the swing arm 102 assembled away from the assembly jig 11.
[0049] As a preferred embodiment, the swing assembly mechanism 12 includes a first swing assembly mechanism and a second swing assembly mechanism, the turntable 16 circumferentially forms a first station, a second station, a third station and a fourth station, the loading mechanism 20 is arranged at the first station, the first swing assembly mechanism is arranged at the second station, the second swing assembly mechanism is arranged at the third station, and the unloading mechanism 40 is arranged at the fourth station.
[0050] In this embodiment, the assembly jig 11 is switched between different stations by the turntable 16, so as to achieve the characteristic of compact structure. The specific working process is as follows: the turntable 16 drives the assembly jig 11 to move to the first station, and the hinge body 101 is transported to the carrier plate 110 by the feeding mechanism 20. Then, the turntable 16 moves the assembly jig 11 to the second station, and the transport mechanism 30 transports the assembled left swing arm and the left swing arm movable plate to the first swing assembly mechanism, and the left swing arm is assembled on the hinge body 101 by the first swing assembly mechanism. After the left swing arm is assembled, the turntable 16 drives the assembly jig 11 to rotate to the third station, and the transport mechanism 30 transports the right swing arm and the right swing arm movable plate to the first swing assembly mechanism, and the right swing arm is assembled by the second swing assembly mechanism. After the right swing arm is assembled, the turntable 16 drives the assembly jig 11 to rotate to the fourth station, and the unloading mechanism 40 moves the hinge body 101 away from the assembly jig 11.
[0051] As a preferred embodiment, the transport mechanism 30 includes a flipping drive 31, a second mobile module 32, a clamping assembly 33, a flipping assembly 34 and a visual inspection camera. The flipping drive 31 is arranged on the second mobile module 32, and the flipping drive 31 is driven to move by the second mobile module 32. The clamping assembly 33 is arranged at the output end of the flipping drive 31 and is used to clamp the assembled swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103. The flipping drive 31 is used to drive the clamping assembly 33 to flip toward the direction of the flipping assembly 34.

The visual inspection camera is arranged on the flipping assembly 34 to assist in positioning the positions of the swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103.
[0052] The conveying mechanism 30 of this embodiment includes a left conveying mechanism and a right conveying mechanism. The left conveying mechanism conveys the assembled left swing arm and the left swing arm movable plate to the first swing assembly mechanism, and the right conveying mechanism conveys the assembled right swing arm and the right swing arm movable plate to the second swing assembly mechanism, thereby realizing the simultaneous assembly of the left swing arm and the right swing arm.
[0053] When the swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103 are assembled together, the clamping assembly 33 clamps the assembled swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103, and then the flipping drive 31 drives the clamping assembly 33 to flip toward the direction of the flipping assembly 34, and then the flipping assembly 34 clamps the end of the swing arm 102 away from the swing arm movable plate 103. At this time, the positions of the swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103 correspond to the visual inspection camera. Then, the first moving module 121 drives the clamping arm unit 123 to move to the position of the flipping assembly 34. With the auxiliary positioning of the visual inspection camera, the clamping arm unit 123 clamps the swing arm 102 and the swing arm movable plate 103. Then, the first moving module 121 drives the clamping arm unit 123 to move to the top of the assembly fixture 11, waiting for the swing arm 102 to be assembled on the hinge body 101. In this embodiment, the direction of the clamping assembly 33 is adjusted by the flipping drive member 31 so that the clamping assembly 33 can transfer the clamped workpiece to the flipping assembly 34, so that the flipping assembly 34 can clamp the end of the swing arm 102 away from the swing arm movable plate 103, so as to facilitate the subsequent clamping arm unit 123 to clamp the end of the swing arm 102 close to the swing arm movable plate 103, thereby eliminating the need to adjust the direction of the swing arm 102 during the subsequent assembly process.
